Pioneer Technology & Arts Academy
PTAA/CO ROCKETS REVIEW (JUNE 2021 Edition)
Welcome PTAA Families:
We are so excited to have your kids join our family for the 2021-2022 Inaugural School Year. There is a lot of information that will be coming out for the coming weeks to look out for. Please keep an eye out for our Newsletter "PTAA Rocket Review" to ensure you have the most up to date information.
PTAA/CO is a tuition free public charter school that focuses on STEAM innovation. We believe students that are given the correct tools are able to make connections far beyond the typical classroom environment. We also want to make sure students are prepared for the ever evolving technology age that is their future. PTAA students take part in normal 'core' classes, including Math, ELAR, Science and Social Studies. Special classes include STEAM/Coding, Art, Music/Theater Arts, Spanish, Mandarin, and P.E.
The mission of Pioneer Technology Arts Academy (PTAA) is to empower and engage students to reach their full potential as global leaders who will enhance their communities and the world through creativity, collaboration and innovation.
My name is Shannon Houston, Founding Principal of PTAA Colorado. I have been with PTAA/Texas Charter Schools for the past 8 years. I have had the privilege of wearing many hats throughout my tenure as an elementary, middle and HS teacher, as well as District Administrator as STEAM and PTECH Coordinator. I relocated to Colorado Springs a year ago to facilitate opening our first Colorado campus within District 49. I love Colorado Springs and this is a personal fullfillment of a long standing Bucket List item to live in my "Dream State." I am a life long learner and passionate about bringing the very best to our students. I love PTAA's K-12 Educational program and know how much it has to offer each child. Our school is a STEAM Academy, fully arts integrated across all curriculum offering project based learning in a blended learning environment. I am very excited about this year and the community of learners and families that have chosen to be a part of PTAA. I look forward to meeting all of you in the coming months. If you have questions, feel free to email me at shouston@ptaaschool.org.
